Luyben Family Dilday-Mottell Mortuary

Thank you Martin Luyben for making a very hard time much easier with your humor, service and professionalism.

Experts at what they do. Made a very difficult time easy and took the time to take care of all the details.
I can’t say enough good things about Dan and Art.
Professional, empathetic and just good people.
Dan even called days later to check on our family.
Just a great business with exceptional employees.

Unfortunately, I had to use the services of Luyben Mortuary twice in 2014 — for my son, and my husband. I had previously used them for 2 employees who also passed unexpectedly — all four funerals, I couldn’t have asked for anyone more professional and caring — you are treated as if you are a member of their family. They know all the right questions to ask you, and answer all questions that you need answers for. Jim Morgan made the last two funerals memorable, and smooth. Thanks to everyone at Luyben’s for your thoughtfulness.

I recently lost a loved one, and the Luyben Family Mortuary was there. I feel they epitomized the respect, caring, compassion and support my family and I really needed at a very sorrowful and stressful time. I recommend them whole-​heartedly. Five Stars.

They tried to over charge me for a casket for my wife and did a shitty job on making my wife up to look like she did before she passed. Hire someone that knows how to do hair and makeup not some kid that takes out the trash.

I attended a funeral here for a beloved friend on 12÷18÷12.
The place is dainty and is in a neighborhood area. There’s plenty of parking from what I remember and I had no issues with finding the place.
The person who was helping the family was really kind and gave good directions for an attendee to follow. In a somber setting, it’s polite to hold off on too many questions for details and such. So, the directions that the guy (I’m guessing the owner, supervisor) gave was really helpful in moving the program along without bothering the family.

My Dad passed away on June 30^th 2012. He had been sick for a long time, and I had tried to plan. Its almost impossible and even the best laid plans, often change. I had called many mortuaries and tried to get a grip on the process. Even though it was not my 1^st funeral planning, things so often change. Art at Luyben was helpful, compassionate and honest. When Dad passed, he followed through. Virginia who completed the planning process was equally compassionate, and the whole difficult process went well and as promised. I would say they went above and beyond my expectations. Funerals are never easy, and while I know mortuaries are a business just any place else, its often one of the most expensive and difficult episodes in life. I trusted my Dad to them and they never let me down, and I never once felt like I was buying a car ! Dad was in good hands, and it was very comforting at a painful time in life. Thanks to all at Luyben Family.

On January 20, 2012 my family suffered the unplanned, tragic loss of my brother. Having been through my mother’s planned passing and the terrible experience we had through All Souls Mortuary, I just didn’t know what to do and couldn’t face it again.
Thankfully, two friends stepped up to the plate to help plan my brother’s memorial through the Luyben Family Dilday-​Mottell Mortuary. Our financial resources were very limited but Mr. Dilday treated us like we were preparing the memorial for the most important person on earth — and we were; my brother, a father, a husband and a friend to countless people.
The mortuary is in the middle of a residential area and their building resembles that of some of the condos nearby which not only gives it a homey feeling but it blends in appropriately with the community.
Inside the the mortuary there was such a peace and serenity and nothing was too hard, contrary to what I experienced while executing my mother’s memorial in September. Everything we wanted was accommodated and if it wasn’t in our small budget Mr. Dilday offered other alternatives we could afford. He also provided many resources that I will be eternally grateful for.
I fully intend to make my future arrangements through this mult-​generational group of renowned funeral homes (Luyben, Dilday & Mottells). In the worst of circumstances this was more than a five star experience.
